[Flexradio] 5000A and the Candle
Well Drax, when the lights go out, the candles come on. Hardly an apropos comparison. No one ever said buy our candles, they will last forever. I love my 5000A, but do chafe at the way the matter was handled. Glad I didn't buy a 5000A the week before the announcement and pay full price. K0GFY R.

[Flexradio] Market for 5000A's
I know I tried to sell my basic, no options, 5000A three times. I listed it for $1500 and had no offers. I dropped the price to $1300, and still no bites (this was five months ago). I finally put it on for $1200, and the only response was from some crank who berated me for destroying the value of the 5000A. At that point, I concluded that the radio was worth more to me than the market would pay. It amazes me that Yaesu FT1000MP's or FT2000's still bring between $1200-$1800 (sometimes more), rigs that are clearly inferior to the 5000A. I'll keep mine as long as the software continues to work, and the hardware can be maintained. Wouldn't mind a 6300 or a 6500 though. K0GFY R. Hunter Ellington 303-996-6585/720-560-8139 P.O.

[Flexradio] Lightning Strikes
Lightning hit the shack last evening. Although everything was on surge protectors, spikes came in through the phone line, blew the surge protector and took out my DSL modem. I further discovered that my computer seems to have lost its Ethernet card, and maybe the Firewire card. The F5000A turns on, but the computer does not see it. What tests can I do to determine whether the communication issue is with the radio, the computer, or both? K0GFY R. Hunter Ellington 303-996-6585/720-560-8139 P.O.
